When Other People Think You Should Sell Your Horse

There have been a few times where I've felt doubt that I picked the right horse. I picked all my horses without a professional's help, except for Berry. I did get some assistance when I bought Berry - she came from Pony Man's current trainer. I went to see a different horse, and I told her what I w[...]

March Conformation Pictures

Today is the month I start taking monthly conformation pictures of my horses. Next month will be the month I start taking monthly conformation pictures of my horses and my pony, as he is not here right now. I have never actively tried to take a conformation photo of any of them, and it proved to[...]

Still Snow Everywhere to Depress Me

I hate that there is still snow covering my property. My arena is still covered in snow. My trailer is still surrounded by snow. My trainer hasn't confirmed that her arena is uncovered, so I'm assuming she is still covered in snow too. Dave is lamenting that I was making riding progress, and[...]

Watching the Snow

Really, I'm just waiting for winter to be over with. Although I'm sure I'm repeating what nearly everyone is thinking. It's too cold, my arena is frozen, my trainer's arena is frozen, I missed my last lesson because Dave let out the air in the truck tires (sabotage?!), and then every time I[...]

Small Accomplishment: Jumping Vintage

I've been afraid of jumping Vintage in the past, mainly because she gets fast, and then she would stop. But I've been learning so much with Berry, I thought I would try it again, now that I sort of know what I'm doing. Previously, I have the very ineffective tactic of "do nothing" and then[...]

All My Equines Accomplished Things

Friday was a day of adventure for all my equine companions, each more successful than the last. So we will start with the least accomplished and move our way up. Pony Man When I went to my lesson on Friday, I loaded up Pony Man and took him with me. He paused to look in the trailer (something he's[...]

Multiple Personality Mare

Really it's only the two personalities, but multiple sounds better next to mare. Last night I rode in my arena for the first time, and Vintage decided to pull out crazy mare. Crazy mare usually happens when she hasn't been ridden in a while, and she will become hot and excitable, taking every aid as[...]

Berry, the Weirdo

After a tiring few weeks, I'm feeling much better. I even rode Vintage! In an effort to make taking care of my horses easier, I let them in the my backyard, so they are literally only steps away. But, because I own a Weirdo Horse (TM), it turns out this does not make everything/anything easi[...]

Horse Blogging Trail Ride: The Attack of the Evergreen Tree

I still have one more New Orleans post to make, but it's been pushed out of the line up because I have been inspired. I went trail riding with Olivia from hellomylivia on Sunday at the Battlefield. She wrote about our adventure here. It was so fun meeting up with her again and going riding! She's[...]

Old People’s Riding Club

While at a neighborhood/country party a few months back, I met some members of the Old People's Riding Club. Since I am in desperate need for more horse riding inspiration, I decided to sign up. On Saturday, I had my first official rating. If you are familiar with Pony Club (and I'm not really), it[...]
